New Content Coming to Hello Kitty Island Adventure

As shared by Sunblink, the Wheatflour Wonderland DLC will add the “largest new world since the game’s launch.” The expansion will also introduce a new befriendable Sanrio character, Cogimyun, who’ll offer “an unprecedented 35 levels of friendship” that grant new quests, abilities, and an exclusive furniture set. Players will also be able to meet Ebi Fry and Cogimyun’s brother, Cogimyon, who’ll unlock new mini-games with various prize offerings, including themed furniture. Adding a little extra magic to the game, players will be able to create and customize magic wands that can be used to transform into “critters and items” and access new puzzles and challenges.

New outfits and accessories are being added as well that can be used to “transform into the Wheatflour Guardians of legend," along with 100 discoverable Wheathearts that can be exchanged at the Wheatheart Tree for themed rewards, plus new craftable noodle-based foods once players find the Noodle Grass collectible. Overall, Wheatflour Wonderland serves as the game’s most substantial content expansion to date — with more stuff on offer than was included with the recentCity Classics update forHello Kitty Island Adventure.

While the $14.99 price point for Wheatflour Wonderland may seem steep for some players, the scope of content appears to justify the cost for dedicated fans of the series. Wheatflour Wonderland is even more expansive than other themed updates, including theUnder the Sea Celebration forHello Kitty Island Adventurethat released back in May with collectible Mermaid Scales that players could exchange for ocean-themed outfits. While the Wheatflour Wonderland expansion may be the first, it likely won’t be the last DLC release forHello Kitty Island Adventure.
